I have an Android Pioneer car audio tablet. I want to root the firmware. I managed to backup firmware by taking the eMMC chip and backup partition. For many days, I was trying to unpack system.img, but then I found it was SquashFS and not ext4. I downloaded the Windows 10 WSL Linux terminal, fixed everything, and succeeded to unsquashfs the system. Now the difficulty is with which command I will make the folder like the original system.img.

I tried mksquashfs system.img but something is not right with the final file. The original is 2 GB, and the modded is 1 GB. I can't get how compress has to be made to be like the original.

Here is the link to the original system, just unzip the file for someone to help me.

  • According to some gist I have found for modifying the squashfs image it is better not to unpack it but directly mount and modify it using the common Linux file operation tools: gist.github.com/natsumerinchan/7a7a819538dfb44d997475ab889d6b47

  • When I download and "unsquashfs" your system.img file, I get a directory of 1.82 GB. Could I ask what Pioneer model number this is for?
